I Confess: Kissing shirts

Confession from...

Dave WallingsI got into WHL free twice in the 1985-1986 season by walking up to the old ticket office just inside the west stand gates and telling them I was Glenn Hoddle's brother and he'd left a ticket for me. I don't know why they believed me but it worked both times - the seats were in the west lower.

The first time I did it was just for a joke (I was supposed to be standing with my mates in the Park Lane) and I couldn't believe it worked. The second time was just to see if the first was a fluke! And I look nothing like Glenn Hoddle...

Deborah TompinsonI am not sure that this is a confession as such but here goes...

I went on a tour of the Lane. I went round all the usual places took photos etc. On arrival to the dressing room I could see all the shirts hanging up on the pegs ready for the forthcoming match which was going to be played on the Monday night.

I felt a sudden urge to kiss Stevie Carr's shirt being a hero of mine etc. I thought no more about it till I was watching the game on Sky that Monday night. I watched in horror as Stevie scored an own goal in that match.

So I feel partly responsable for that in a stupid way. Sorry Stevie I promise that if I am ever lucky enough to do that again I won't be kissing anyone's shirts ever again.
